contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP shall have been set
aside on its books, are insured against or bonded over to the satisfaction of the Lender and the contesting of such payment does
not create a lien on property of the Borrower which is not a Permitted Lien or that could not otherwise be reasonably expected
to have a material Adverse Effect. There is no controversy or objection pending or threatened in respect of any tax returns of
the Borrower. The Borrower has made adequate reserves on its books and records in accordance with GAAP for all taxes that have

levies against it, as well as claims of any kind which, if unpaid, could become a lien on any of its property; provided that the

7.15Indemnification.
The Borrower agrees to defend (with counsel satisfactory to the Lender), protect, indemnify, exonerate and hold harmless each
Indemnified Party from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
claims, costs, expenses and distributions of any kind or nature (including, without limitation, the disbursements and the reasonable
fees of counsel for each Indemnified Party thereto, which shall also include, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’
fees and time charges of attorneys who may be employees of any Indemnified Party), which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted
against, any Indemnified Party (whether direct, indirect or consequential and whether based on any federal, state or local laws
or regulations, including, without limitation, securities laws, Environmental Laws, commercial laws and regulations, under common
law or in equity, or based on contract or otherwise) in any manner relating to or arising out of this Agreement, or any act, event
or transaction related or attendant thereto, the preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement, including the making or
issuance and management of the Loans, the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loans, the enforcement of the Lender’s
rights and remedies under this Agreement, any other instruments and documents delivered hereunder, or under any other agreement
between the Borrower and the Lender; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not have any obligations hereunder to any Indemnified
Party with respect to matters determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have been
caused by or resulting from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnified Party. To the extent that the undertaking
to indemnify set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, the Borrower
shall satisfy such undertaking to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. Any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty,
cost or expense covered by this indemnity shall be paid to each Indemnified Party on demand, and failing prompt payment, together
with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date incurred by each Indemnified Party until paid by the Borrower, shall be
added to the Obligations of the Borrower.
IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, the Borrower and the Lender have executed this Loan Agreement as of the date first above written.
